Chapter 60 The Azure-Scaled Serpent King
"Run!" Cai Xuan shouted, turning and running.
After running a few steps, he realized no one was following. Turning around, he saw Xi'er standing there, hands on her hips, calmly saying, "Why are you running? Sisters, kill them!"
In an instant, lightning crackled, water dragons roared, and flames soared into the sky!
Yun'er's divine eyes suddenly opened, and blazing lightning burst forth from them, weaving into a huge electric net that enveloped the densest part of the snake swarm.
"Crackling"
Lightning bolts leaped and weaved among the snakes, striking them one by one. Their bodies instantly stiffened, their scales charred black, white smoke billowing from their mouths, as they convulsed and collapsed to the ground. Some were instantly reduced to charcoal, the acrid smell filling the air.
With a wave of her hands, Shu'er unleashed two streams of water from her palms, like two giant pythons, fiercely swirling towards the snake swarm.
Wherever the water dragon passed, the green-scaled snakes were all swept into the water, and no matter how much they struggled, they could not break free.
After coiling up, the water dragon slowly tightened, twisting the green-scaled snakes into a ball, the sound of breaking bones echoing throughout. When the water dragon dissipated, the green-scaled snakes lay limply on the ground, their bones shattered, motionless, clearly dead.
Xin'er was even more decisive. She clasped her hands together, and a ball of crimson flame exploded from her palms, turning into a wall of fire that pushed towards the snake swarm.
Wherever the flames passed, vegetation turned to ash. The green-scaled snake didn't even have time to scream before it was burned to ashes. A strong, acrid smell filled the air. Some of the snakes that were lucky enough to survive curled up in clumps and scattered around, wisps of smoke rising from them; they were probably beyond saving.
The three of them joined forces, and lightning, water dragons, and flames intertwined to create a magnificent yet cruel spectacle.
Although the swarm of blue-scaled snakes was numerous, they were as fragile as paper before them, utterly powerless. One after another, the blue-scaled snakes fell, their corpses piling up like mountains, and blood flowing like rivers.
"Wow—wow—"
Suddenly, a strange sound, like a baby crying, came from deep within the orchard. It was sharp and piercing, sending chills down one's spine.
A moment later, a dark green serpent king, thicker than a bucket and with a dark red growth on its head, slowly crawled out of the forest with a dense swarm of snakes, its cold, merciless blood-red vertical pupils looking down at everyone present.
As soon as the Azure Scale Serpent King appeared, the snakes present and the swarm that came out with it seemed to be injected with chicken blood, and they frantically pounced on Cai Xuan and the others!
Yun'er's divine eyes spewed out lightning, and bolts of lightning poured down like a torrential rain, killing all the attacking snakes; Shu'er waved her hands repeatedly, and water dragons transformed into countless water arrows, shooting densely at the snakes, each water arrow almost piercing the vital spot of a green-scaled snake; Xin'er pushed out her hands, and a pillar of fire fell into the center of the snake swarm, exploding into a mushroom cloud of flames, burning the green-scaled snakes within several feet to ashes.
Seeing his subordinates being killed one after another, the Azure Scale Serpent King flew into a rage, opened his blood-red maw, and spat out a thick stream of dark green venom.
Xi'er stood in front and was sprayed directly, leaving her face, hair, and neck covered in sticky venom. The strong corrosiveness destroyed all her clothes, but it failed to penetrate her skin or poison her.
"You wretched snake, how dare you spit on me? You're asking for death!"
Xi'er wiped the venom from her face, enraged, her eyes blazing with fury. In an instant, she shot out like an arrow.
The Azure Scale Serpent King immediately opened its massive maw, preparing to spew out a second jet of venom. But Xi'er was too fast; the Azure Scale Serpent King couldn't even keep up with her movements. In a flash, she moved away from the trajectory of the venom spray. The venom sprayed onto the ground behind her, instantly corroding a large, scorched mud pit.
Seeing that he couldn't defeat her, the Green-Scaled Serpent King turned and fled.
"Trying to run away?"
Xi'er strode forward and grabbed the snake's tail.
"Get up!" Xi'er shouted, and with a burst of strength, she grabbed the tail of the Green Scaled Serpent King, which was thicker than a water bucket and weighed over a thousand pounds, and swung it around!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
The Azure Scale Serpent King's body traced a huge arc in the air, like a thick whip, whipped around by Xi'er with a whooshing sound. The Azure Scale Serpent King twisted and struggled frantically, its thick body trying to coil around something, but suspended in the air with nowhere to gain leverage, it could only futilely swing its head and tail.
"Bang!"
Xi'er grabbed the Azure Scaled Serpent King's tail and slammed it hard against a thick tree nearby. The tree trunk snapped with a crack, sending splinters flying. The Azure Scaled Serpent King's back struck the tree trunk with a dull thud, several scales flew off, and blood spurted out like a fountain.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
Xi'er grabbed the Green Scaled Serpent King's tail and slammed it left and right, smashing it in all directions.
Trees were snapped in half, boulders were cracked, and deep craters were blasted into the ground. The Azure Scale Serpent King's body was battered and bruised by the violent impacts; its scales shattered, its flesh was mangled, and its bones cracked with a series of sounds that made one's teeth ache.
At first, the Green Scale Serpent King struggled frantically, swinging its thick, long body back and forth, trying to entangle Xi'er.
But after being hit a dozen times, its struggles grew weaker and weaker, and its swinging became smaller and smaller. Later, its body began to droop softly, its head drooped limply, and its blood-red vertical pupils gradually lost their luster.
"Bang!"
With a final slam, Xi'er slammed the Azure Scale Serpent King to the ground, creating a huge crater half a person deep.
The Azure Scale Serpent King twitched a few times in the pit, then remained completely still.
Its head was tilted to one side, its mouth slightly open, and a long tongue drooping limply. Its body was motionless, except for its tail, which was still wagging unwillingly, as if making a final struggle.
"Brother, aren't I amazing?"
Xi'er clapped her hands, shaking off the venom and blood, then turned to Cai Xuan and asked proudly.
"Wow... amazing!" Cai Xuan's mouth was agape, and he couldn't close it for a long time.
This little guy is getting more and more monstrous. The Azure Scale Serpent King weighs at least a thousand pounds; an ordinary person would run away as fast as they could. But in front of Xi'er, it's like an earthworm, being swung around and smashed, completely powerless to fight back.
This is the terrifying aspect of being born with an indestructible body and boundless divine power.
"Shu'er, wash Xi'er with water to prevent her from getting poison on her. After she's washed, remember to throw the poison far away to avoid you getting poisoned," Cai Xuan said to his third sister, looking at the remaining poison on Xi'er's body.
Shu'er did as she was told, using the water flow to bathe Xi'er.
After taking a bath, her clothes became tattered and torn, all corroded by the Green Scale Serpent King's venom. Enraged, Xi'er kicked the Green Scale Serpent King a few more times.
There were still a few green-scaled snakes in the orchard. When they saw the snake king was dead, they turned and ran away, disappearing into the depths of the dense forest in the blink of an eye.
Such a large piece of snake meat could not be wasted, so Cai Xuan had Shu'er wash the Green Scaled Snake King and begin to skin and extract the meat.
